Transportation and Markets.

Cheap and rapid transportation Is of the ut
most importance to those who are both producers
and consumers. 1t cheapens all that he buys
and enhances the price of all he produces. The
"LANGFORD COLONY" is most advantage
ously situated in this respect. 1t is between two
railroads that both connect with steamboats,
that run from the Sacramento and San Joaquin
points to the Golden Gate. This gives the cheap
est freight and passenger rates for the distance
this Coast The markets for all kinds of pro-
ducts are good. The Canneries, Wineries and
Fruit Dealers take all the Fruit raised at highly
remunerative prices. There is an unlimited
demand for all the Wine, Raisins, Figs, Prunes,
Green, Dried and Canned Fruits that can be
grown. Dairy Products, Fowls, Eggs and vege-
tables find ready sale Every acre of this land
when in bearing Fruit Trees or Vines will net
800 per acre. For further particulars apply 10

--Dr. Pirlot, who has recently removed from ThompsonvilIe to Stafford Springs. having attained some notoriety from con- nection with some police cases before re- moving here, we are requested by him to give facts in inc case that exaggerated stories afoat may be set'at rest. Our only authority in the case is a report in the ThompsonvilleI Press, from which it ap- pears that the doctor had hrst prosecuted a party for assault on his step-daughter, which charge was not sustained. A count CT charge of assault, made against the doc- tor by the defendant in the first case, also failed. Next the doctor was charged with improper treatment in a case of midwifery, and on this was held in $500 bonds, after. wards reduced to $100. In this case it was shown that 1t was finally necessary to call in the aid of another doctor, of whose testimony the lPress says: Dr. Darling testified that "the caae was an unusual one to meet. He didn't justify all that Dr. Pirlot had done in the case, yet his testimony did not reflect badly upou him. No defense was introduced. The Press closes by saying "It is plainly evidsnt by the talk about town that public opinion since the trial has gained. in favor of Dr. Pirlot, and If ahe case should be noilsd m would seem that the doctor had been preA- ty we'll punished"
